PR embarrassed

A typo in a list of candidates embarrassed the Praja Rajyam when a TDP leader Dr. Nehru Naik in Mahbubabad (ST) Assembly constituency called up television channels at midnight of Saturday to say he was not even a member of the new party. The name should have been typed as Shankar Naik and around 2 a.m. in the wee hours of Sunday, the party sent out an SMS clarifying that it was a mistake.
